Police Working with Concord Street Businesses After Traffic Complaints

The North Reading Police Department is working with Concord Street businesses after complaints about “unsafe vehicular traffic on Concord Street,” said North Reading Police.

Please assist us in keeping our local roadways safe for both private and commercial vehicles by heading this message and driving safely. We thank you in advance for your cooperation,” said North Reading Police.
